Mark your calendars! This Saturday (10/10) 11am-4pm!

My Front Street studio will be a part of The Contemporary Dayton's "Dayton Studio Tour" where many Dayton local artists will open their studios from all over the city!

It's a great way to experience the local art scene and learn about the artists processes straight from the artists themselves--I'll be doing LIVE demos all day! See artworks come to life in the very spaces they are made!

Event is FREE and open to the public!
